Janet, "You Raise Me Up" is my fav. song. I even bought the sheet music to play it on the piano. Weeks later, I'm still practicing it. To see this boy play it what looks like by "ear" is incredible. It makes me want to give up, but that, I won't. Thanks for posting this. I really, really enjoyed it.

Hi Janet, yes, I'm interested in the Mira -- definitely. Let me know when, what and where and how much...
Thanks,
S.

Hi, Janet. Oh, I love this time of year. Our trees are in full bloom of color. It is so beautiful. Here I am stuck at the computer all week. I hope I can get out this weekend and enjoy it for a spell.

Hope all is well with you! Tomorrow is TGIF! :-)

I have seen that show ~ it's good!! Yeah, he does shed, but not too bad with regular baths. I grew up with labs and I actually prefer the long hair to the short hair. With the long hair at least it accumulates in dust bunnies and lays on top of things so it's easier to maintain and pick up. And when I babysit my parents lab, I always find the short hair sticks in everything (couch, rug) and is harder to vacuum ~ it's like your house got a haircut:) Just different preferences ~ I guess either way you get hair!! But temperament is sweet as can be ~ great family and kid dog, not that I'm biased ;))

Have a great day!!

Janet,

Yes, I am one of the major Eclipse fans on this site. I hesitated posting the picture of my desk on here. That was taken when I first got Eclipse, and I was working on my dictionary.

I've had a girlfriend over here the last couple of days, and we have been reorganizing my office. As soon as I finish tidying it, I think it will be vastly improved. The flow is much better now. Got rid of a huge desk. Now it is sitting in the carport ...

I have been following the Diamante threads. Drat that LightSpeed! Have you sold yours yet? I am quite happy with the Grand, although it is still slightly stacking. I can't remember if you ever tried writing on one or not. I will never go back if I can help it!

Hi Janet,

Thank you for your kind thoughts and welcome message. I am looking to expand my business, make new friends, and learn all I can.

Just wanted to check and see if I'd already thanked you for the nice birthday wish this morning, went to your page, and what begins to play?

It's a Wonderful World!! It certainly is! And made even more so with great people in it like those who live in The Nation!! Thanks for the music, it hit the spot!

Really made my day special. Plus, I have some scoping work!! Gifts, all around!! :-) Friends and work, what else do we need? (cheesecake?) (more work?) blessings!

HI Janet ~ Yes, that's our Bear (aptly named by the kids:). He's actually our second Bernese Mountain Dog. My sister had a Swissy for a bit ~ great dogs, but they have a little bit of a different temperament. Bear is very sweet and a great family dog.
Great music and photos, Janet!!

Thanks for the quick response Janet, I did try out the Diamante as well Sunday and it's pretty amazing (even at my turtle speed). The cost is what is so scary about all of the equipment and software. Buying it all at once is a MAJOR commitment! I will get back to you about the LS asap, I'm making a decision soon. Thanks for your advice about getting a professional writer now, as I get a little faster every month I realize I'm getting closer and closer to getting certified and working.

P.S. LOVE the song you have playing on your page, one of my favorites!

Janet, sorry to hear about the pain in the thumbs. That sounds like it hurts... OUCH! I was planning on buying a new machine but I kind of like the idea of having the audio backup. The only thing is coming up with $5,000!!! Thanks for your response and I hope your thumbs don't hurt anymore!

I love it! I also like making address labels to send out my transcripts -- they look so nice and professional with my little border around them, and once they're in the computer, I can print them over and over, as I freelance for about 30 agencies! Better than a phonebook.

It's nice to know that I'm not alone in the cockpit. On the one hand, I'm glad to be working, but, on the other hand, I wish I could sit back and relax for one day.

I think I may be finished by this afternoon on this one transcript. Then I'm going to pack up my Sammy dog, go to Starbucks, and take a nice long walk in the park. With the crisp air and the foliage, I absolutely adore this time of year.

Janet!
Thank you so much for your donation.
I hope you know that we truly appreciate it.

Isn't it funny Janet? I get a lot of "McHuff!" LOL How they get that I don't know! What is so difficult of Hugh with a Mc in front of it? LOL Or if I say the name I get McCue. I never realized it would be such a tough name for most people! LOL Is your husband Irish? My f-i-l was Irish.

Janet,
I love the new song. Life does seem like a long and windy road at times - some good and some not so good.
Thanks for being such a good friend!

Thanks Janet! Yes Sable is very special. Most of those pictures were taken by my daughter. She has a special eye with the camera, even at 14! My speed varies. If I know the material I'm working at about 150. But new stuff is much slower. I'm trying to reinforce my theory and then pick up the speed again. 30 years is very impressive. I'm hoping to really start picking up speed after I finish the academics. It's great to get to know you. Don't know too many people with this last name! LOL

Janet --

Nope, that's not me! I'm just not that flexible!

Thank you for the kind words! :)

Hey, Janet! All is well here. Enjoying my post-NCRA life and not living my life in an airplane -- love my new job! So glad to hear that you're busy!!! I hope this CR rut is nearing an end for all.
